Outstanding
Posted on Feb 24, 2026
The hotel is very conveniently located near airport, making it a best choice for travelers who are on short visit to or transit via Cairo. The facilities are outstanding with a well maintained swimming pool, nice restaurants, souvenir shops and with nice & attentive staffs. The check in was made a little earlier and smoother via online check-in. The room is clean, well maintained and spacious for the price range. The hotel offers free shuttle service to all the departure terminals (once in 30 minutes for 24 hours) and the complimentary buffer breakfast was awesome with a wide spread of menu items.

Spent a night. Room is small and rather dark.
It wasn't clean. Room wasn't prepared well.
No bathroom towels.
Housekeeping staff couldn't understand English well.
Pleasant surprise to have dinner and breakfast included.
Lobby and grounds are lovely, well kept.
Location is ideal near airport. Free airport shuttle shuttle half hour was an advantage.

If you are looking for a place to layover this hotel is near the airport, however, there’s no clear signage/ direction given from the hotel for the shuttle bus although already pre inform the hotel.
Secondly, due to late arrival, we expected for an exhausted body, hence booked for an additional day in Cairo for early stay in, however instead of double bed and facing swimming view, I received two merged single bed with terrible outside view. I paid extra to avoid those, but I still end up getting the wrong room, too exhausted to walk all the way to reception to complain.
Thirdly, poor English communication from the hotel, it took me more than half an hour of communication to request for empty bowls (which my call got transferred from departments to departments, but non of them understand what is a bowl), I end up receive a plate.

The hotel needs to up their game, I was allocated a room at check in which had already been occupied by another guest, you could imagine the surprise of myself and the guest when I tried to open the room at midnight. The reception gave me an upgrade, but the room wasn’t very clean it had stains in a lot of places, packaging of the tooth brush look like they date from the times of the Pharaoh.

Terrible experience from start to finish. Check-in took half an hour of waiting in line. When I first got to the room, it was dirty and hadn't been cleaned. The front desk staff were unhelpful, and even the complimentary breakfast was unappetizing.

I waited for the shuttle bus at the airport for almost an hour. Every time I called the driver, he said "10 more minutes." I'm really speechless with Egyptians.

The location is convenient, and the hotel provides a 24-hour shuttle service that takes about 15 minutes. If you need a pickup from the airport, you can call the hotel driver to arrange it.
I had both breakfast and dinner at the hotel, and the food was good—tasty with a wide variety of options. It can get a bit crowded since many tour groups stay here. Dinner is served until 10 PM, but I arrived late and the staff kindly allowed me to eat even after closing time, which was very convenient.
Overall, it’s a great option for those arriving late at night or needing to catch an early flight.

The room facilities were good, and the hotel is close to the airport. However, the airport shuttle service was not great. There's only one shuttle at fixed times, so if there are too many people, you might miss it and have to wait for it to return for the next ride. Make sure to allow plenty of time.

This hotel is way better than the ones in Soho, almost on par with a typical Home Inns in China. It's super close to the airport and even has a free shuttle! Downstairs, there's a coffee shop, a pub, and a pool. Breakfast was just okay, nothing special. The only drawback was the lack of Chinese power outlets. The only usable one was on the hairdryer, but it didn't even work well. Ended up buying an adapter downstairs for $5.

This hotel is located 5 minutes from the airport and is definitely one of the best mid-Price options in the area for a long layover or short stay. The location is NOT great if you want to see the pyramids or museums but great for being near the airport. The pool area is quite nice with a bar next to it and spaces to sunbathe.
The restaurants are decent quality and the flavors are a 7/10. We got the Cesar salad, mixed grill plate, and shrimp soup! The shrimp soup was awesome and everything else was just OK!
The wifi wasn’t strong unfortunately but if you sign up for the ALL benefits you can get faster wifi for free too.
There is a convenience store and souvenir shops in case you forgot a gift for someone too.

Stayed overnight in Cairo for connection. Very good location, excellent shuttle service. The hotel is overpriced because of location, rooms are old but clean. Definitely isn't worth USD 170 I paid but it was a necessity to sleep for 3-4 hours and have clean shave and shower.
